when sitting in the back of the car
and windows were wound down
the rushing winds battling across my cheeks
i feel like i'm a kid all over again
when dad buys ice-cream back home
i served it with hazelnut sauce and banana slices
spoons and spoons savoured with my greedy lips
i feel like i'm a kid all over again
when night falls and bedtime approaches
as i give mum a good night hug
cuddling tight in her arms feeling a mother's warmth
made me feel like a kid all over again
when going back home after so long
seeing the face of mummy and daddy
calling them out like seeing them back home from their day's work
i know i'm a kid all over again.

Stranded Mirage
I walked across an empty land
a desert
a space out of nowhere
I yearn for water
Please, some water
and You granted my wish; I saw a pool ahead
How life had deceived me
given me expectations that I should never have
It is mirage
tricking me into believe there is hope somewhere.
I thought life was good
I thought life treated me well
How you brought me to my knees.
Failed terribly in the arms of fate.
No.
No, there is no fate.
It lies in my hands.
But why did i make the decision
A decision I can't foresee the consequences
Bad judgment, yes.
Bad timing. Bad luck.
Why did i leave for the desert
My head is spinning
I don't know why i left
I just did.
Life just made me.
I look around for hope
Life had disappointed me again.
Now i have no water
no company
no soul.
It's bare.
I'm stranded in nowhere.
Lost in point of no return.
Wait, wait.
There's something ahead.
No. No!
I should've known.
Another mirage:
a stranded one.
a desert

A Beginning.
A tweak of an eyelid,
a race of a heartbeat;
My heart pounded when i stepped outside.
It is going to be a new day at a new place.
The sun is shining,
but no clouds to shield its strong rays.
The wind is not blowing either.
A hat would do great at this moment.
Now where are my car keys? (oops, no car at the mo, i'm just saying.) =p
A new day to start a new life.
A challenge, yes;
An obstacle, maybe.
Time for action. Time to turn obstacles into challenges into success!
OK ignition started.
GO!
A beginning to start a new stage of life. College is ending soon. Old age is coming soon.
Work life is peeping on me. Who says study life is difficult?
Humans are weird.When you are blessed with one thing, you look pass it and wishes for another thing you do not own. When you finally own that thing you longed for, you either hope everything goes back to the way it was before, or you want something else. We are never satisfied with what we have.
For those who are studying, cherish your life now. Life is at one of its best times when we are leading a student life. For those who are working and earning for your life and your loved ones, happy career building! But please do not betray your moral values along the way.
Haven't I ramble long enough? For those that i have bored to death and made you sleepy, please forgive me; but at least I helped improved your insomnia. =p
Go for the four things we all hope for a change in this world, PEACE, Awareness, NO Diseases, and NO Poverty.
Last but not least, have a sense of humour! Here's a lame joke as an ending:
A horse walks into a bar. The barman says, "Why the long face?"
=D
